U.S. President Donald Trump may have thought that his ceasefire of June 23 brought the war on Iran to an end, but his hysteria yesterday over a speech delivered on June 26 by Iran’s Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei betrays how volatile the situation and, therefore, how great the danger of warfare still is. “Why would the so-called ‘Supreme Leader,’ Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, of the war torn Country of Iran, say so blatantly and foolishly that he won the War with Israel, when he knows his statement is a lie, it is not so,” Trump angrily ranted. “His Country was decimated, his three evil Nuclear Sites were OBLITERATED, and I knew EXACTLY where he was sheltered, and would not let Israel, or the U.S. Armed Forces, by far the Greatest and Most Powerful in the World, terminate his life. I SAVED HIM FROM A VERY UGLY AND IGNOMINIOUS DEATH, and he does not have to say, ‘THANK YOU, PRESIDENT TRUMP!’”

In other words, Trump claims, in a childish fit, to have saved Khamenei’s life, and therefore, Khamenei should act accordingly: “During the last few days, I was working on the possible removal of sanctions, and other things, which would have given a much better chance to Iran at a full, fast, and complete recovery—The sanctions are BITING! But no, instead I get hit with a statement of anger, hatred, and disgust, and immediately dropped all work on sanction relief, and more.”

Trump further promised that from here on out, things will only get worse for Iran unless Tehran properly grovels. “Iran has to get back into the World Order flow, or things will only get worse for them,” he concluded. “They are always so angry, hostile, and unhappy, and look at what it has gotten them—A burned out, blown up Country, with no future, a decimated Military, a horrible Economy, and DEATH all around them. They have no hope, and it will only get worse! I wish the leadership of Iran would realize that you often get more with HONEY than you do with VINEGAR. PEACE!!!”
